Hello, Recently we had an issue with our backup solution, a system called Teradactyl.
We had a situation and I am told that the problem is that the central computing group's tape robots or VTL's are old and highly unreliable and there won't be any monies to get new tape system for at least 6 months. We used to use netbackup in our college but it only worked on Solaris and we have moved off that boat a long time ago. :) So... we have a backup solution we are working on with some windows file servers to back them up to AWS Glacier. https://aws.amazon.com/glacier/ I was wondering if it might be possible to use some kind of open source software to handle openafs file server backups and restores ? Something such as amanda ? http://www.amanda.org/ Could that be made to backup to AWS Glacier with vos dump or something? We think it would be bad to just have unreliable backups for 6 months even though we are paying for a Teradactyl license. Thanks for any ideas anyone has...
